Gamma oscillation in schizophrenia. [PDF]
Dysfunctional neural circuitry has been found to be involved in abnormalities of perception and cognition in patients with schizophrenia. Gamma oscillations are essential for integrating information within neural circuits and have therefore been associated with many perceptual and cognitive processes in healthy human subjects and animals.

The Wilson-Cowan model can emulate gamma oscillations, and thus is extensively used to research the generation of gamma oscillations closely related to cognitive functions. Previous studies have revealed that excitatory and inhibitory inputs to the model

Gamma oscillations and schizophrenia [PDF]
In the last 2 decades, it has become apparent that brain regions communicate by coordinating the firing of populations of neurons. When neurons synchronize their firing, their rhythmic input is reflected in the extracellular field potential as brain oscillations. Rhythmic brain activity in animals and humans can be recorded using noninvasive techniques

Gamma Oscillations Facilitate Effective Learning in Excitatory-Inhibitory Balanced Neural Circuits
Gamma oscillation in neural circuits is believed to associate with effective learning in the brain, while the underlying mechanism is unclear. This paper aims to study how spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP), a typical mechanism of learning, with ...

Mechanisms of Gamma Oscillations [PDF]
Gamma rhythms are commonly observed in many brain regions during both waking and sleep states, yet their functions and mechanisms remain a matter of debate. Here we review the cellular and synaptic mechanisms underlying gamma oscillations and outline empirical questions and controversial conceptual issues.

Gamma Oscillations and Stimulus Selection [PDF]
More coherent excitatory stimuli are known to have a competitive advantage over less coherent ones. We show here that this advantage is amplified greatly when the target includes inhibitory interneurons acting via GABAA-receptor-mediated synapses and the coherent input oscillates at gamma frequency.

Dopamine D4 receptor activation increases hippocampal gamma oscillations by enhancing synchronization of fast-spiking interneurons. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Gamma oscillations are electric activity patterns of the mammalian brain hypothesized to serve attention, sensory perception, working memory and memory encoding.

Spatial computation with gamma oscillations [PDF]
Gamma oscillations in cortex have been extensively studied with relation to behavior in both humans and animal models; however, their computational role in the processing of behaviorally relevant signals is still not clear. One oft-overlooked characteristic of gamma oscillations is their spatial distribution over the cortical space and the ...

Gamma oscillations and episodic memory
Enhanced gamma oscillatory activity (30-80 Hz) accompanies the successful formation and retrieval of episodic memories. While this co-occurrence is well documented, the mechanistic contributions of gamma oscillatory activity to episodic memory remain unclear.
